happy.
    “That was wonderful.”
    He could already feel her relaxing. She snuggled her head beneath his chin and sighed before going to sleep. As he was drifting off to sleep himself, he thought of her comments about her family and the loneliness in her voice.
    The pack would make damned sure she would never feel alone again.

    Eve came awake slowly, her mind not ready to wake up. Warmth surrounded her, had her sinking lower under the covers. She could smell Noah there. Untamed and primal. She opened her eyes and looked at the bedside table but didn’t see her clock. Nothing looked right. She opened her eyes wider, and panic surged up to her throat and almost choked her. Nothing looked right. It wasn’t her room, her bed. In the next instant, the memory of the hours before came rushing back to her. She could feel her face heat as she sat up. She glanced over and noticed she was alone. The impression of a head on the pillow next to hers told her that Noah hadn’t been gone that long.
    With a deep breath, she looked around. She was embarrassed to admit that she hadn’t paid much attention to it the night before. It was hard to do since she had a man bent on ravishing her. For a moment, she held that thought to her chest. Never before had a man taken her like that. Truth was there had only been one time before this, and it just didn’t rate with what she had shared with Noah. With him, he had acted as if he would die if he didn’t have her. The first and second time. She closed her eyes. The man was a sensual creature, and she didn’t think she would ever get enough of him. She had never thought herself very sexual, but Noah had proven her wrong. More than once.
    She swung her legs over the edge of the bed and winced. She was a bit sore between her legs. After what she had been doing most of the night, it made sense. She glanced around. The room was massive. It was bigger than most of her cabin. Wooden floors with a few scattered rugs, a sitting area with a wood burning fireplace, and a bank of windows that looked out on the valley. Damn, there were no curtains. Granted, it was still dark, but she wasn’t bold enough to walk through the room naked. It would be her luck that the minister from town would walk by. She glanced around and couldn’t find her clothes. But she did find a long-sleeve T-shirt she had seen Noah wear before. It was old, worn, and soft as a baby’s bottom. And he had left it there for her to wear. She smiled over the sweetness and tugged it over her head. She located her panties, slipped them on, and then looked back at the bed.
    She hadn’t realized how big the thing was before. It could easily fit four or five people on it. Odd, she had never seen something so big before and had paid no attention to it when she had been on it. Well, most of the time, she was busy or asleep.
    Her face heated again. When had she started thinking of sex every five seconds? Easy to answer that question, it was when she met Noah. The man had turned her into a nympho. Speaking of the man, she needed to find him. She hesitated at the door, wondering about the other men in the family. True, the shirt hit her close to her knees, so she figured it covered all her important parts. But she wasn’t used to being in the company of so many men. What would they think if they saw her dressed this way? It was a sure bet they already knew she’d been to bed with Noah.
    Realizing she had no way to know what the heck was going on unless she found Noah, she decided to search for the man. As she walked down the hall, she took in the things she had noticed the night before. Pictures lined the walls, filled with intimate snapshots of the cousins. God, they were all so cute. Max mugging for the camera. Shane with a solemn smile. Each shot was intimate, special, real. They were closer than any family she had witnessed, but she chalked it up to she grew up with a warped family. She was seen more as a project than a child.
    She
